I have checked 4.13-rc1 and none is doing anything with clock in these
irq routines.
It means it is a question if they have the same issue when device is
sleeping or we do something wrong.
It is not a problem to move these calls to core (patch is quite simple)
but validate that if this is correct on others SoC.
Do you know if we can validate this on different SoC?

Nava: Can you please validate this again on ZynqMP?

Thanks,
Michal
